The CW's upcoming Gotham Knights show continues to round out its cast, and the latest addition is playing a character known only as "Brody."
Deadline reports that Rahart Adams (Pacific Rim: Uprising, Nowhere Boys) has joined the ensemble in a series lead capacity. His mysterious role is described as "confident and charismatic, Brody’s got the brains and the looks — and he knows it. However, his entitled attitude covers his insecurity and jealousy of anyone who rivals him."
There's always a chance this Brody fella will turn out to be a newly-created character, but it's just as likely he'll be revealed to be an established hero/villain from the comics. There are a few possibilities, but it's worth noting that "Knute Brody" was a criminal alias used by several members of the Bat-family, including Dick Grayson, Tim Drake, Barbara Gordon, and even Alfred.
Adams joins Fallon Smythe (Grown-Ish) as Bluebird, Tyler DiChiara (Relish) as her brother Cullen Row, Olivia Rose Keegan (Days of our Lives) as Duela Dent, Navia Robinson (Raven's Home) as Carrie Kelley, Oscar Morgan (Trauma) as Turner Hayes, Misha Collins (Supernatural) as Harvey Dent, and Anna Lore as Stephanie Brown.
You can check out the show's updated logline below.
"The one-hour drama takes place in in the wake of Bruce Wayne’s murder. His rebellious adopted son forges an unlikely alliance with the children of Batman’s enemies when they are all framed for killing the Caped Crusader. And as the city’s most wanted criminals, this renegade band of misfits must fight to clear their names. But in a Gotham with no Dark Knight to protect it, the city descends into the most dangerous it’s ever been. However, hope comes from the most unexpected of places as this team of mismatched fugitives will become its next generation of saviors known as the Gotham Knights."
